The flexibility of T5, in that almost every task it performs is handled by a different service that can be overwritten has a downfall. It sometimes takes me a long time to figure out what service handles what task and how can it be overwritten (the under documentation argument obviously plays a role here). Some of the reflection can make debugging harder at times and annotations over POJO's takes some time to get used to (but maybe that is a java5+ wide argument).
